Shaper BenchPilot + Workstation + Shelf Upgrade Kit

Shaper BenchPilot + Workstation + Shelf Upgrade Kit

BenchPilot enables automated, hands-free cutting for Origin so you can focus on other tasks at hand.

The Shelf Upgrade Kit can increase the cuttable area and provide a flat, rigid surface when cutting with Workstation. Whether using BenchPilot or driving Origin manually, it is an excellent addition to Workstation.  

The Workstation is designed to streamline your workflow and expand Origin’s abilities by offering rapid, repeatable, and precise fixturing of a wide range of stock configurations. It features a reusable ShaperTape field, an easily adjustable shelf for small or difficult-to-fixture workpieces, indexing pins for easy alignment and registration, and an angled fence for aligning stock from 0 to 45 degrees. These features greatly reduce setup time and make it easier than ever to get cutting quickly.

Built-in ShaperTape: Origin will automatically recall all designs associated with your Workstation

T-Track Clamping Face: Use the included clamps, or your own to fixture stock vertically

Adjustable Shelf: Raise and lower parts for horizontal cutting

Mounts To Your Bench & Stores Easily: Clamp Workstation to your bench or permanently mount. Flat pack when not in use

Highly Versatile Fixturing: Workstation has durable ShaperTape pre-applied. Origin will remember all Origin Workspaces you create with your Workstation.

Cut & Repeat: Quick setup features make repetitive cuts for volume production fast and reliable.

Vertical Workholding Perfected: Make even the most demanding projects approachable and intuitive.

Clamp And Cut Any Setup: The vertical and horizontal workholding capabilities of Workstation enable you to cut a wide range of joinery.

Horizontal Cutting: Shelf makes it easy to register your workpiece so it’s flush with the top of Workstation.

Clip Origin into BenchPilot and let it drive Origin from point A to point B, while Origin continues to handle the small precision movements. Think of it like autopilot for Origin.
